Ex-Broward deputy who survived shooting arrested

MIAMI — A Miami judge set bond at $2,500 Monday morning for Maury Hernandez, the former Broward Sheriff's Office deputy who was arrested on a domestic violence charge on Sunday.

Hernandez survived a 2007 gunshot wound to the head that happened during a traffic stop in Pembroke Park. He spent 19 days in a coma and more than two moths in a hospital. Colleagues and doctors called his recovery miraculous. He eventually retired from the Sheriff's Office.

In 2012, Hernandez shot and wounded a homeless man who he said assaulted him and his family at an ice cream shop near his home. He was not charged in that case.

Details have not yet been released about Hernandez's Sunday arrest at his Miami Lakes home on charges of battery and domestic violence involving his wife Ivonne Linen, a Miami-Dade police officer.

Parents Mauricio and Rosa Hernandez and sibling Josue Hernandez, a Hallandale Beach police officer, were in court as Maury Hernandez made a first appearance by way of a closed-circuit video hookup from jail. He was dressed in red jail garb.

The judge ordered that once Maury Hernandez bonds out of jail, he have no contact with his wife. However, he will be allowed one visit per week, for two hours, with the couple's 15-month-old son at the home of his parents.

Hernandez's attorney and family members refused comment after the hearing.
